Sekolah Datuk Abdul Razak (SDAR) is a premier, all-boys boarding school in Malaysia, named after Allahyarham Tun Abdul Razak. Being one of the oldest Fully Residential schools in Malaysia and one of 6 all-boys SBP's, SDAR is considered as a Premier School. SDAR has been awarded titles by the Government of Malaysia based on the school's achievements and track record. The school was known as a Smart School, before becoming a Cluster School in 2008. In 2010, SDAR was selected as one of the 20 Sekolah Berprestasi Tinggi or High Performance schools in Malaysia. The school is specialised in rugby and foyer program. Currently located in Sungai Gadut (Seremban, Negeri Sembilan), SDAR has had a long history of moving from one place to another since its inception. In the recent PT3 examination (2016), the school managed to produce 22 straight As student out of 123 students to become the second best school in Negeri Sembilan.
SDAR was founded in Johor Bahru on 1 May 1956, and was first known as the Malay Secondary School, or Sekolah Menengah Melayu. The founding principles of this school were based on the suggestions included in Penyata Razak 1956 (the Razak Report). Among its objectives was to give opportunities for young Malay students in primary schools, especially those from poor and rural backgrounds, to further their studies at secondary level. The concept was quite different from certain other Premier Schools in Malaya that were set up for the children of aristocrats and those who were more well-off in society.
When the Sekolah Menengah Melayu was founded, there was no dedicated site nor building for the school. The first group of 80 students and three teachers were temporarily housed at Sekolah Bukit Zaharah, Johor Bahru. In early 1957, half of the students (40 pupils) from the first group re-enrolled to study at the new premise in Ipoh, Perak. Along with other pupils from across the country, they became the pioneer batch of students in what then became Sekolah Tuanku Abdul Rahman (STAR).
